 “Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.” ~ Henry David Thoreau While every business aims for profit, those who chase the bottom line while ignoring the human element often fall short. In the Hospitality industry, when an entrepreneur focuses on customer satisfaction and staff welfare which includes consistent training, the sky isn’t the limit; it’s just the starting point.

 60 Years After Boro: The Ijaw Nation Cannot Afford a Leadership Vacuum ​The indefinite postponement of the Ijaw National Congress (INC) elections has placed our nation at a perilous crossroads. Whatever the internal bottlenecks may be, the leadership must realize that the Ijaw people are in no mood for excuses. We are hungry for direction, thirsty for purpose, and tired of administrative inertia. ​It is a painful irony that exactly 60 years after Major Isaac Adaka Boro led the 12-Day Revolution to demand a future for our people, we are stalling on the basic democratic process of choosing our own leaders. While the average Ijaw citizen grapples with hunger and a lack of clear regional strategy, our electoral body remains deadlocked.

 History is best honored when we use it as a mirror to improve our present. It's been ​60 years since the 12-Day Revolution. ​Major Isaac Adaka Boro fought for the dignity of the Ijaw people. Today, that legacy is being choked—not just by neglect, but by leaders who prioritize personal gain over our collective survival. ​The creeks are still polluted. Our youth are still jobless. The "struggle" has become a business for the elite while the average Ijaw man suffers. ​Is it not time we return to the original vision?  ​#Ijaw #Izon #NigerDelta #60YearsLater
